Award Scheme
The Rover Scout award scheme leads to the Baden-Powell Scout Award - the highest youth award in Australian Scouting. This begins with Squire Training - the training required to be completed before being invested as a fully invested Rover or Rover Knight. Following this is the Rover Skills badge - basic camping, showing an understanding of the Scouting Fundamentals and providing 10 hours of service, although the Rover Skills Badge can be completed by Squires, it is uncommon for a Squire to be awarded the badge without finishing their Crew's Squire Training Program first. Rovers who complete the Rover Skills Badge can then attempt the Baden-Powell Scout Award. Those who obtain there Baden Powell Scout Award are presented their award by the Governor of their state or territory.

Famous quotes containing the words award and/or scheme:
“The award of a pure gold medal for poetry would flatter the recipient unduly: no poem ever attains such carat purity.”
—Robert Graves (1895–1985)
“I have no scheme about it,—no designs on men at all; and, if I had, my mode would be to tempt them with the fruit, and not with the manure. To what end do I lead a simple life at all, pray? That I may teach others to simplify their lives?—and so all our lives be simplified merely, like an algebraic formula? Or not, rather, that I may make use of the ground I have cleared, to live more worthily and profitably?”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
